The Closed Substance Cycle and Waste Management Act, first published in1994, was designed to integrate product responsibility into economic decision-making, with the aim of building a life cycle economy that avoids the generation of waste. The Act states that whoever produces, markets and consumes goods is responsible for the avoidance, recycling, reuse, and environmentally-sound disposal of waste. As a result, it establishes a hierarchy of avoidance, recovery, and disposal that emphasizes waste avoidance, promotes low-waste products, and provides incentives for waste recovery practices. Properly sorting and recycling waste in turn: Saves energy Reduces air pollution Decreases greenhouse gas emissions Saves money Your participation is vital for the success of all recycling efforts! Making small changes in your daily life style will reduce waste! REDUCE the amount of trash discarded, e.g., choose products with less packaging. Choose loose fruit, cheese, and meat. Buy products in glass jars and tins which can be recycled.
